22. Miles Burris, Oakland: He likely wonít play much early, but the rookie is a player to keep an eye on.

"This is a special player. He is truly one of the best defensive players in the NFL."

OMG. What great analysis.

Outside of the top 5, the list gets a little screwy.

All Pro > Rookie that tailed off

Instead of Dontari Poe? And where would he play? The Chiefs have a top 3 LB corps in the NFL, not sure why you would have liked to add another 1st round pick LB to our team, unless you think the guy will be Aldon Smith or Von Miller.

3 in the top 5 is impressive. I can't wait until Poe commands a double-team, so these guys can clean up in the sack and loss of yards categories.

I'm surprised that Von Miller is ranked so high, though I still think he's top five in spite of his end-of-season problems. I don't understand what people see in D.J. Williams, and I have no idea who Donald Butler is. Is that a red herring just to see if we're paying attention?

All Pro > Rookie that tailed off

I tend to agree, but he's obviously factoring in potential. A #2 overall pick with that strong of a rookie showing is going to get some serious love.

Plus a big part of the reason he started to tail off was his hand injury. Can you imagine how hard it has to be to shed the block on a guy that weighs 80 pounds more than you while using one hand?

DJ is definitely first. The dude can do everything well. Hali is a special pass rushing talent though.

The top 5 should all be Broncos/ Knowmo

I'm watching with interest Denver's 6th round pick, LB Danny Trevathan from Kentucky. He was playing with the first team during nickel situations in the last OTA. Kid isn't big, not highly rated, and of course hope springs eternal for all draft picks this time of year.
Still, he was all-SEC and reports are that he is very advanced mentally for a rook.
And there may be a slot open if DJ Williams goes to prison.

This is a special player.

He must be a pro. Such eloquence. Almost feels like I'm watching the player do something. Special.

Jarrett Johnson should be higher, so should Joe Mays and Shaun Phillips.

This is an odd compilation of "who's good now" mixed with "who's probably going to be good soon." The criteria in Billy's head is pretty dumb.

I remember a couple years ago when that used to be the case for Derrick Johnson.

No excuses, so I'm not about to make them for Denver players. Soooo, he has potential to be an All-Pro. Fuck that, DJ already is.

The list is garbage, but not because of those 2 bums. Phillips I agree on though.

Definitely. Phillips is definitely in the upper LBs in the AFC West.

Jarrett Johnson is a huge loss for the Ravens. Best run defending 3-4 OLB in the league and can rush the passer fairly decent too.
